Wish I could open up my heart to show you how frustrated & upset I am now. Words may not describe it well. You can only feel it burning inside you with no clue on what else you could do to trigger some improvement on such never ending nonsense. Tell me if you can accept this kind of nonsense happening around you from time to time.
This is a girl with 3 years of working experience in Australia for relevant field whom already joined me for 8 months with full training by ME, MYSELF & I.
A smart girl with potential to grow some more with a pretty face? You got to be kidding me! Most people claimed beauty & brain usually don't exist altogether in a girl's system. And who doesn't want to hire a person with beauty & a brain these days? Being her mentor for so many months, I must say I can never be more glad to get someone like her who is willing to work for months under so many one leg kicking accounts. She can really work and is a fast learner. Most importantly, I can see there's hidden potential inside awaiting for chances to grow.
However,
here comes the exciting part...
every time she passes you a document, there will always be spelling errors, spacing issues & problems with consistency even after you asked her twice if she has done a thorough copy check. This never ending process happens at least twice a day.
Things which you have alerted NOT once but 2-3 times will not land on your table unless you keep reminding & pestering like an old lady. Tasks given in written format will be forgotten without reminders. 1 simple map or invite card revision will take 3-6 rounds of changes and sometimes dragged on for 2 days before you can send it out to client.
Sometimes the brain is fully functioning but sometimes the brain is like lack of oxygen for 3 seconds and suddenly everything is like shit! You can rely but not rely on her at times like this. Confrontation & direct comments didn't help. Bambuing also didn't help either. Patience and tolerance quota was also drained up. And still it happened over and over again. How else can you deal with it if it landed on you?
It drives me mad when unnecessary mistakes happen. It drives me even more mad when these little imperfections have to come from someone like her! Why does little imperfections to perfection always have to happen at the same time? Are they siblings? ...

Worry
I am beginning to worry about my health these days. I get tired so sudden and my body can change to sleep mode within seconds but after 15 minutes or so I will wake up and everything will get back to normal. I even snored while sleeping in sitting position. This is BAD! VERY BAD signs indeed. How am I suppose to share a room with 5 on my next trip? :(

Monday NO Blues
I am happy today ^__^. This is one very unusual Monday which I have no Monday Blues when I have to wake up early for work. Not because Spain won. I have had some quality rest over the weekend. Hence, I am not tired like usual Mondays. This is real awesome POWER NAP!!!
The other reason was I totally ignored my boss' indirect demand to attend the client's wedding by showing her some support. It's a super stressful and expensive wedding which I could not afford to deal with especially this month. Then again, I have also thrown away all pending works and headache behind which I couldn't be bothered with anymore.
I kept smiling from the moment the alarm clock rang till I reached the office.
Plenty of car parks is happy.
A quiet office without football is happy.
Passing by all Monday Blues faces is happy.
Cheung Fun for breakfast is happy.
Boss came around spreading her unhappiness & nonsense but I am still happy.
I'm beginning to miss Monday morning on 12 July 2010. May all the Mondays will be as awesome as today.

Motherfucking fridges
It's a sad life!
Imagine.
Working late. No dinner. Leaving office at 12.30am. Tired. Extremely hungry. Nearly gastric. Too dangerous to stop by to pack some decent food. Rushing home hoping there's some dishes in the kitchen. Reached home. Ignored the dogs. Very hungry. 1 more minute of hunger will end up eating gastric pills instead of food.
Rushed to the wet kitchen.
NO FOOD!!!
Checked fridge #1.
NO FOOD!!!
Checked fridge #2.
NO FOOD!!!
Headed on to the dry kitchen. Only alcohol and water.
For goodness sake!!! I just need something decent (never mind if its cold) which I can pop into my mouth within 5 minutes. Pulled drawer. Packs of instant noodle saying hi to me. No choice. Cooked and ate unwillingly.
Hate, hate, hate my mum's fridge. We have 2 fridges and yet there's no decent food. Not even milk or yogurt. Just raw vegetables, frozen meat and Chinese herbs. Motherfucking fridges!

Down cycle
Last week MK told me he's going thru a down cycle again. I feel the same too. Sigh.... 真的好想放一个有长的假期冷静一下。然后在想清楚我30岁的路程要如何处理。

Urgency to move
I have the urgency to move so badly! There's too much to bitch about. Too much sensitivity on the other channel. Hence, the move. Or maybe I am back with my loneliness. Hence, the need to blog.
